Glass is mainly made of sand, soda and lime melted at a high temperature. Tempering or various additives gives you extra-strong and impact-resistant glass that in some cases can be taken straight from freezer to oven without cracking. A big benefit is how glass can be recycled over and over without the quality deteriorating. Also, a lot less energy is needed to melt recycled glass compared to new raw materials. Our goal is to eventually use only recycled glass in our range.

"The challenge when I designed OFTAST series was to combine good function with a very low price. I gave the plates and bowls a timeless, functional and harmonious form that makes both the manufacturing and transport efficient. And I chose to use the material tempered glass, which is thin and elegant, yet durable. My hope is that OFTAST will therefore work well in many kitchens all around the world."
